Dementia Wards

Lancashire Teaching Hospitals were awarded more than £1M to deliver ‘dementia friendly care’ within the hospital to improve the quality of life for all patients by providing a welcoming and safe environment.

FWP worked closely with Trust staff to develop proposals for the works. The significant remodelling work was carried out during spring 2014. The works were carried out to a short programme and were completed on time and within budget.

A further scheme of improvements for wards at Royal Preston Hospital is also planned following the successful works at Chorley Hospital. These works will also make the environment more suitable and comfortable for older people.
